mod_pubsub_github

Introduction

This module accepts Github web hooks and publishes them to a local pubsub component for XMPP clients to subscribe to.

Entries are pushed as Atom payloads.

It may also work with Gitlab.

Configuration

Load the module on a pubsub component:

Component "pubsub.example.com" "pubsub"
    modules_enabled = { "pubsub_github" }
    github_secret = "NP7bZooYSLKze96TQMpFW5ov"

The URL for Github to post to would be either:

The module also takes the following config options:

Name Default Description
github_node "github" The pubsub node to publish commits on.
github_secret Required Shared secret used to sign HTTP requests.
github_node_prefix "github/"
github_node_mapping not set Field in repository object to use as node instead of github_node
github_actor superuser Which actor to do the publish as (used for access control)

More advanced example

Component "pubsub.example.com" "pubsub"
    modules_enabled = { "pubsub_github" }
    github_actor = "github.com"
    github_node_mapping = "name" --> github_node_prefix .. "repo"
    -- github_node_mapping = "full_name" --> github_node_prefix .. "owner/repo"
    github_secret = "sekr1t"

If your HTTP host doesn’t match the pubsub component’s address, you will need to inform Prosody. For more info see Prosody’s HTTP server documentation.
